Movie Info

Producer/writer/director and stepbrother to Elvis Presley, D. Edward Stanley relays just what it was like to protect the King of Rock and Roll in an intensely personal biography that offers rare personal insight into one of the music world's most revered figures. Stanley was only sixteen at the time he went to work for The King, yet in his experiences the teen would learn more about the way the world works than he would have in any classroom. Of course the highs were just as intense as the lows,

Unrated, 1 hr. 30 min.

Not an Elvis bio. This film highlights some unpleasant experiences Elvis' stepbrother and bodyguard David Stanley had while working for Elvis in the 1970's. I know Stanley and it's based on true events.

Who has seen this movie? Met David Stanley in LA in 2003 back when he was looking for investors for this film. Wondering what others thought of it who've seen it. (I'm guessing it's not a film for the entire family)
